RESISTERSTOWN, Md. — Sunday marked the 28th anniversary since Baltimore Police officer Ira Weiner was killed in the line of duty.

Each year for over the last decade, the Shomrim Society of Maryland organizes a small gathering of friends and family around Weiner's grave site at Oheb Shalom Memorial Park in Reisterstown.

The ceremony was officiated by Rabbi Chesky Tenenbaum and followed by a few laughs, stories and memories of the late officer.
